WHAT does the future hold for this Cork team?

Walsh is more advanced than Darragh was at 20

I think Sunday’s success will liberate them. The pressure is off. They can now go out and play with freedom. With the players they have at their disposal, playing with freedom and confidence, they will be a very dangerous animal from a Kerry perspective. Having been under such pressure to deliver they played well within themselves on Sunday, playing to about 70-75% of their optimum.

There is more in them. Aidan Walsh is going to develop into one of the best midfielders of his generation if he stays injury-free. He has all the necessary attributes and is ahead in his development than even someone like Darragh O Sé was at his age.
